"" " . - . . .
ol ' is composed nr .
twelve armea sailors ami
twelve armed
marines under a chief petty officer, who
will be on duty to keep sailors and marines
from getting into trouhle.
The police take the view that with co.
operation of the Atlantic Patrol they will
be able to keep vice In check. Heretofore,
they say, their effirts have been hompeied
by marines nnd sailors, who often inter
fered with efforts of policemen to rid the
district of disreputable women and disrep
utable men who preyed on them.
Patrolmen are told to confine their efforts
to men In uniform Stationed in the "Tender
loin nnd South Philadelphia districts, the
armed guards are Instructed to warn their
comrades of the dangers and arrest them
when they refuse to accept advice
Men who are arrested by the guards will
be taken to police Stations nnd later turned
over to the navy yard authorities.
"We are not acting as pol'cemen or de
tectives; ' said one of the guards, "but
Imply trying to keep our comrades In the
straight and narrow path. When we see
that a man In uniform Is In the company
of a vicious woman or tenderloin character
we give him a bit of advice. If he does
not accept It and it becomes apparent that
he Is unable to handle himself we lock him
up. Any man who Is not strong enough to
keep away from such vicious characters Is
better off when Interned In a police sta
tion" Adolphus Zandt. a marine, attached to

mony of Policeman Ocker. of the Twenty

went to Point Breeze Park last night with

clothes, obtained a quantity of liquor. "He
returned to his companions," said Ocker,

of the members of the union committee In
charge of the strike, the company offered a
compromise on wages, hut when It refused
to recognize the union the offer was re
fued nnd the demands were Increased
Admission that the strike had been called
was made at the company's ottlccs today,
but nobody would assume authority to dis
cuss the strike or state the company's posi
tion. Nobody would say how many men
were out nnd the figures appearing nhoo
are tho strikers' etlmate.
The general manager, the superintendent
and his assistant and other officers of the

URGES SPORTSMEN AS
AVIATION MATERIAL
Expert British Airman Praises
Baseball and Football as
Training
WASHINGTON, July IS
America has the opportunity to wrest con.
trol of the air from all other nations. Al
ready she Is developing a type of airplane
engine that will surpass the present HrltlMi
and French tj-pe Her material for expert
aviators Is the equal of any
That is the opinion of probably the best
aviator that Great Ilrltaln has produced
He Is detailed here by the London War
Office to aid the United States In mobilizing
her aerial forces He Is Major L W. D
Flees, of the Royal Flying forces He wears
on his breast the coveted Victoria Cross for
extreme bravery Major Rees Is a member
of the permanent British commission to the
United States.
"The nll-Amcrlcan airplane engine now
being built In the United States," said the
Major, "will surpass any of the English
and French types now In use. This engine,
as a matter nf fact, may be the type that
will spell suceess In the war.
VHAIt TO OHT STARTED
"The United States ought to build its own
nlrplanes and Its own engines. The success
of the airplane Is entirely dependent on
the engine It took England a full year
after the breaking out of tho war before she
could turn out nlrplanes In any large num
ber. Incidentally, she Is turning out new
types dally The engine now largely used
by the British has been redesigned Ave
times In the last year and still Is subject
to change.
"Your American youth have sport train
ing. Your games of baseball and football
have developed In every man the power of
quick, clear thinking. This has given them a
power which should make them great avia
tors. They are daring as well, I have ob
served; but they must nof be too daring,
for an aviator does not fight for his own
life, he fights for the thousands behind the
lines for whom he sees.
"Speed Is a necessity. The quicker the
American airplanes are put Into service the
sooner victory will come.
"If America could put 10,000 machines on
the front today It would mean 10,000 ma
chines to the good This may change over,
night, though, for we never know how many
machines Germany may produce.
"English and French air fighting forces
now have sufficient men and machines to
cope with the German air forces In recon
nolterlng and observation. Every machine
that America can put Into action will mean
just one more machine for offensive work.
If we had 10,000 American machines, we
could blow up every German railway Junc
tion and munition plant In no time.
FOUR CLASSES OF WqRK
'The airplane has four classes of work.
First Is reconnaissance locating the enemy
troops. The next duty Is to direct artillery
fire : then comes the work of attacking We
are hampered now In our offensive work by
the lack of men and machines.
"You have the best facilities for train
ing here. In France there are days at a
time when we cannot fly because of climatic
conditions. In England It frequently occurs
that for mora than a montn wo ao not nave
more, than twenty nours in wnicn we car
send men Into the air for training. I under
stand that In Texas they have 360 days In
a year suitable for flylnf."

GOOD-BY, FREE LUNCH! BAR CLERKS

Saloonmen Will Save $7500 a Day in Food Cost, but Phila

They Assert
More than $"B00 worth of free lunch was

ing, casting another llpht on the affair,
"would not bp consumed if It were not free
Therefore. I guess this law saves upward
of $5000 a day in the matter of food. It
costs me about ten dollars a day to set up
a free lunch. Lots of people do not spend
as much on gratis feeding, while a great
number spend lots more. There are nearly
1500 saloons in the city, nnd allowing $5
apiece you have about $7500 spent dallv by
the liquor dealers."
Down around Dock street the feeling
seems to prevail that they were not forced
to obey the law until they had been olfi
clally notified. At noon, therefore, steve
dores and other workers bought their suds
and received their bowl of soup ni usual.
"If the worst comes to the worst, we can
soak the boys a nickel for tho soup and

After traveling more than 100,000 miles
In the last four years, a young English
soldier of fortune enlisted today In Com

Cavalry, at the armory. Thirty-third street
and Lancaster avenue.
Jted-hcaded, a typical bantamweight, but
with the chest and muscuUr development of

was the first Inside when the office opened.
He appeared at the armory again with his
papers almost within the hour.
Cnptaln C C Jones, of the company, does
not know how to place the Englishman, he
said, for the Blmplo reason that he has so
many qualifications. He's an expert sea
man and rigger, lumberman, mechanic and
cook Besides he knows horses from A to X,
and "considerable" about guns
The lad left his home In Hyde, England,

GIVING TOMPKINS "GUN"
Didn't Believe Accused Man Had
Revolver or Would' Shoot
Any One
IDENTIFIED BY FOREMAN
Mrs Anna Hubbell, of 0013 Rare street.
Philadelphia, today denied that she ever
gave a pistol to George C Tompkins, her
son-in-law. who Is in tho Cambria Countv
Jail at llbensbtirg facing a charge of mur
dering his partner, Kdmund I. Humphries,
nnd Humphries' wlfo nnd young son
County Detective Roscoc Custer, of
Cambila County, came here with nn au
tomatic pistol found in the tonneau of the
muider car In the hope of having Mrs
llubbelt Identify It She had gone to
Chester to visit relatives. Ho found her in
Chester, where sho said:
"I did not glvo him this revelver and I
did not give him any revolver I do not
believe he ever had a revolver nnd I know
ho would never harm a hair on nny one's
head He Is not guilty of this murder
and could not he guilty of nny murder."
At Johnstofn George Naylor. Kmigh
Run mine foremtin, tho first man Sunday
to report the Humphries triple killing on
tho Khenshurg-Carrolltown road, who told
Kbenshurg ofllcers that he bad seen tho
dead body of a woman and a boy In an
automobile, and a man zlgznglng through
a cornfield toward the car, today con
fronted Tompkins In tho Kbcnsburg Jail,
took one look, walked out nnd said'
"That is the man I saw Sunday morn
ing coming toward the car In which 1 saw
tho bodies."
Naylor was accompanied Sunday by his
brother and their wives and children. Tho
other members of bis party, as well as
Joseph Westover. who saw Humphries run
ning up tho road, with a man In a car In
pursuit, will nlso be given an opportunity
to Identify Tompkins
Tompkins and Naylor did not speak In
tho Jail. Tompkins stoically submitted to
tho Inspection.
Tompkins, by counsel, today waived a
hearing Mrs Tompkins, when Informed
sho could sec her husband only once a
week, prepared to return to her home nt
Philadelphia. George Tompkins, Sr, and his
son, Morton Tompkins, of Chester, Pa.,
brother of the accused, visited Tompkins at
the Jail today. They advised Mrs. Tomp
kins to do no talking. She merely smiled
Her self-control has been remarkable
Naylor's Identification of Tompkins has
probably put an end to plans for the release
of the suspect on n writ of habeas corpus.
Tompkins has admitted to detectives that
he was on his way to Philadelphia to mort
gage his property, but he did not slate
what property was Involved or where it
was located. Within this circumstance, the
authorities bellevo. lies tile motive, if
Tompkins did the killing. It has been cs
tabllbheil that Mrs. Caroline Peters Humph
rles hell a note against Tompkins for
$1500. and that this note was In the black
bag which Mrs. Humphries packed so care
fully as to make Tompkins fully cognizant
that It contained "very Important papers."
A will was also found among Tompkins's
effects It Is paid that Tompkins had paid
a part of this note, but about $1200 still
remained unpaid. The State believes that
it was for tho purpose of liquidating this
debt, upon which payment Is said to havo
ieen demanded, that Tompkins was about
to arrange the mortgage on his property.
